Body butter ingredients and skin types

Our body creams are formulated with natural-origin ingredients tailored to various skin concerns.

  • Shea Butter - intensely nourishing and protective, ideal for very dry or rough skin.
  • Coconut Oil - lightweight hydration for normal to dry skin with a tropical scent.
  • Almond Milk - calms and soothes sensitive skin while offering gentle hydration.
  • Argan Oil - helps restore elasticity, ideal for mature or rough skin.

Every product is made with ethically sourced Community Fair Trade ingredients.

What are the benefits of body butter?

Body butters deliver deep, intensive hydration, especially to areas prone to dryness like elbows, knees, and feet. Unlike lighter lotions, body butters form a protective barrier that locks in moisture for up to 72 hours. Regular use helps soften and smooth rough patches, improve skin elasticity and reduce flakiness, soothe irritation from dryness or environmental stress, and provide long-lasting fragrance throughout the day. They're especially beneficial in colder months or for very dry or dehydrated skin.

How to choose the right body butter

Finding the right body cream depends on your skin needs and texture preferences.

All body butters contain at least 95% natural-origin ingredients and come in fully recyclable tubs.

How to use a body butter

For best results, apply body butter to clean, dry skin using the correct method.

  • After showering: pat skin dry but leave slightly damp for better absorption.
  • Scoop and warm: warm the product between your hands before applying.
  • Massage in: use circular motions, focusing on dry or rough areas.
  • Use consistently: apply once or twice per day, especially after exfoliation or before bed for overnight repair.

For enhanced results, exfoliate with our body scrubs beforehand to remove dead skin and improve absorption.
